hollywood_69 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 hey swammi our draft just went rb heavy old school, i got johnson and johnson! probally should have went white as safer but johnson has more upside imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABearWithFurniture Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 He played all of last year on a torn meniscus, not sure why a little hammy tweak is dropping him in the rankings. I'll take him if you don't want him... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Dogs Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 In one of my locals this afternoon, picked up Tate in the 15th, so can hopefully use him as some trade bait for a worried Foster owner. took him right before the Foster owner did, so I was getting cussed out.....

Jackass Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 1.05 & 1.06 got tremendous value, IMO. if you discount the holdout and hammy they are. but both those are risks that have to be factored into value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
detlef Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 if you discount the holdout and hammy they are. but both those are risks that have to be factored into value. Exactly. I bought Foster for less than Rice and AP and CJ for less than a ton of guys at auction. At the time it seemed like I was getting the steals of the draft. Right now, not so much. Given that I now have 3 roster spots tied up with hand cuffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Like Soup Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 I had a draft yesterday afternoon, 10 teams and I was picking 9th. I couldn't believe Foster was still there so I got him and then got Tate in the 14th or so of 17 rounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Dogs Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 So the question is, who is Fosters real backup. the Huddle and Texans depth charts both show Derrick Ward as the main guy with Tate as the 3rd option........, but I like many others have been picking up Ben Tate late. Tate is the better back here, but any opinion on who gets more playing time??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tate is the better back here, but any opinion on who gets more playing time??? according to the local reports, Ward is definitely the #2. I don't think they trust Tate yet on pass protection. If Foster sits the first few games, Ward is definitely who you want to have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAdonis2010 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 what about derrick ward..does he merit a pickup...i already drafted tate in 2 out of 3 of my leagues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTSuper7 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 He went at 3 and Owner drafted Tate in the 10th (16 rounds - max 5 RBs rostered) Should I assume Peterson went first and you got Rice? I have the 2 spot in my main local draft this weekend, so just curious... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
